Some stories demand to be told with care. The Bombing of Pan Am 103 is one of them.
Now streaming on Netflix, the six-part limited series revisits the devastating 1988 Lockerbie disaster, when Pan Am Flight 103 exploded over Scotland, killing 270 people in the deadliest terrorist attack in British history. But this isn’t just a story about tragedy—it’s also about resilience, determination, and the decades-long pursuit of justice.
Drawing on the testimony of those who lived through the aftermath, the series follows the massive international investigation led by Scottish police and US law enforcement, while also highlighting the families whose relentless search for answers never stopped.
The newly released trailer sets the tone with haunting scenes from Lockerbie before shifting into the race to identify those responsible. As investigators warn that failure could leave the door open for another attack, the series unfolds as both a gripping true-crime drama and a deeply human story.
The cast features Connor Swindells, Patrick J. Adams, Merritt Wever, Peter Mullan, Eddie Marsan, Kevin McKidd, Lauren Lyle, and an ensemble of acclaimed actors bringing this extraordinary true story to life.
If you’re drawn to powerful true stories, investigative dramas, or history that changed the world, The Bombing of Pan Am 103 is a compelling watch that’s now available on Netflix.
